Core Effects Descriptions

Rotary

This is a simulation of a rotating speaker used on organs. The rotating speaker was invented to give static organ tones a pipe organ type of animation, but this distinctive sound became a legend in its own right. Spinning a sound around the room creates a doppler pitch shift along with many other complex and musically pleasing sonic effects.

The Rotary incorporates acceleration and deceleration as you switch between the two speeds.
